Norwegian progressive rock band AVKRVUST was founded by Martin Utby and Simon Bergseth - two musicians and friends who grew up together and have been playing tons of gigs with all kinds of different bands, but never together until now.
At the young age of 7 years old, Martin and Simon made a pact that they would form a band when they got older. Now, 22 years later they've done just that. An album is ready - 55 minutes of music inspired by everything they grew up listening to - everything from Mew, Anekdoten and Porcupine Tree to Opeth, Neal Morse and King Crimson.
All the music has been written at a small cabin, deep into the norwegian forests (Alvdal, Norway), Simon (composer, guitars, bass and vocals) and Martin (composer, drummer and synths) have later been joined by Oystein Aadland on bass/keys, Edward Seim on guitars and Auver Gaaren on keys.
Their band name is inspired by a local author named Kjell Aukrust. They changed the name to avoid confusion.
